Why Leeds United's Elland Road could be snubbed if EURO 2028 bid is successful

The United Kingdom and Ireland are set to win the rights to host EURO 2028 after it emerged that there were no other bidders for the tournament. It will be the first time that the UK has hosted a tournament on its own since the 1996 European Championships.

London and Glasgow were both host cities for the EUROs that took place last summer, however the tournament took place in 10 other destinations across the continent, including the likes of Baku and Saint Petersburg. In both of the previous EUROs and World Cup, there has been 12 stadiums and it is likely that Elland Road will be in the conversation.

Leeds United are planning to expand their current capacity, however there are currently 25 stadiums across the UK and Ireland that are bigger than Elland Road, which means they could be snubbed. Here at LeedsLive , we have rounded up the top 20.
